I have not seen the live action version. Was it good? Was it necessary?

I appreciate you saving me from watching this. Lol

It also missed a few vital scenes. They cut down the movie to fit within an arbitrary time limit.

I'm flabbergasted that they found a way to do a shot-for-shot remake wrong.

[-] RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

They intentionally wanted to make the shot-for-shot remake fail so they can point at it "still failing" and continue to ruin more remakes.

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

What? That makes no sense.

[-] degen@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago

Did they know the original is shorter?

It just struck me that the 'live action' version of most movies are still like 90% CGI... Really the only thing not computer generated are the actors and even then, only mostly. What's even the difference at that point?

An attempt to apeal to the "cartoons are for babies" crowd?

I mean, there's a >0 number of good live-action adaptations of animated shows. I've heard mainly good things about the Netflix One Piece show.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

If it's so good, then why is there only One Piece of it? Why not a Second or Third Piece?

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

It's apparently an adaptation, not a shot for shot transcription.

[-] Unboxious@ani.social 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah but that's not necessarily a bad thing. You probably wouldn't want a shot-for-shot transcription going from manga to live-action.

There's a live action version? I just assumed the middle screenshot was DLSS 5.

It was good. It was almost a beat for beat, scene for scene remake. The only scene I specifically noticed being omitted was the one on the beach with the small dragons.

It was almost like DreamWorks was telling Disney, "Hey, this is how you do it. Keep the story the same, and it works, dumb mouse."
